Tender or public works complaint

Bid rigging signs, fake quality, or bribes around public tenders and road works.

Who this is for

Citizens or bidders seeing clear public tender or works abuse.

Real life (simple)

  • A local road tender looks pre-decided. Work quality is fake.
  • Real-life move: save tender ID and photos of the site. Use RTI for tender papers. Complain to the works department / vigilance with facts only.

What to do (step by step)

  1. Collect public documents: tender notice, work order board, photos of poor work.
  2. Do not accuse privately without sources. Stick to visible facts.
  3. File a written complaint to the department head and vigilance cell.
  4. Use RTI for measurement books and payment status.
  5. Send a copy on CPGRAMS.
  6. For competition issues in larger markets, note CCI public complaint paths if relevant.

Tips

  • Keep written proof.
  • Ask for acknowledgement numbers.
  • Escalate if there is silence.

Warnings

  • Do not use violence.
  • Do not send private files to Trishola. Stay on official portals.
